Could this mean a slight drop in their MSRP? One can hope, right?

Interesting.  I would like to see Colt's take on LWRC products.  Would be great if Colt made a mid length rifle and more calibers.  They do have that modular 7.62 rifle, so combing that with LWRC tech.

One could hope indeed, but people are willing to pay for LWRC brand and Colt would be a fool to drop prices while the demand for the rifle is still high. I just hope Colt doesn't ruin the LWRC line.

Does anyone think the quality of lwrc rifles will go down now that they will be produced by a much larger company?
